Chris Cornell covers the King of Pop
Yeah yeah, you don't cover classics blah blah blah... who cares my friends and I love playing Stairway, and we're working on Freebird for singer, one guitar, and drums. I don't like you either.

Anywho, Mr. Soundgarden singing Billie Jean...



Off his album "Unplugged in Sweden" (2006). I think it's fun.

Great stuff! But it would be better with a little bit more clever guitar.

Probably, but Chris Cornell was the one playing, so I didn't expect much.

I think it fits what he's doing quite well. Acts more like a foundation for the vocal.

Chris Cornell has a great voice. I don't care if he's singing Donovan songs.

No idea. Sometime before September 2006... and after Thriller came out.

This song (Cornell version) was put out quite a while ago wasn't it?

Love Cornell's voice, but prefered the verses to the chorus on this take. Interesting version tho...

Despite Chris Cornell's decent version of this song, I think it's quite a tribute to the genius of "The King of Pop"...despite his strange behaviours.

Andy Williams didn't write tunes and Donovan rules. Man, Chris Cornell is a fine vocalist. I probably won't catch him in concert until 2030 when he has a theater in Branson.

(Andy Williams also rules.)
